Note: I have nothing against Joy. She's actually one of my favorite characters. I Judy love the Jerome/ joy rivalry. I find it entertaining.
Jerome's POV
I know I shouldn't have ran out in the middle of class but, Joy told me to look at something in the empty classroom on the top floor. Everyone knows it's there but it's never used. When I got in there I found a rope and an envelope with my name on it.
Mara's POV
Eddie and I followed Jerome into the empty classroom. He had a rope in one hand and a letter in the other. We watched him from the little door window. (I don't know what their called.) He dropped the letter and he held the rope in both hands. He stared at it and breathed deeply. He pulled on it and let rub against his skin. The look in his eyes changed. I had to stop him. When I ran in there he looked shocked. Eddie came in behind me and asked "Jerome! What are you doing?"
" I wasn't, I swear!" Jerome said all panicky.
" what where you going to do with that rope?" I asked.
" Mara, I-" Jerome started.
Eddie whispered in shock," Where you going to hang yourself?"
Jerome's eyes darted to the letter on the ground. I picked it up and it said 'why don't you do us all a favor' I could feel the tears coming.
This was more serious than I thought.
